Philips Hue Smart 60W GU10 LED Bulb - White and Color Ambiance Color-Changing Light - 2 Pack - 450LM - Indoor - Control with Hue App - Works with Alexa, Google Assistant and Apple Homekit, 584680

I didn't even want to buy these since I don't have much use for colored lights in the first place, and all of my smart devices are at the switch level anyway, but... I'm also impulsive and technologically silly, so I bought them in order for a computer to interact with them for a specific reason - watching Formula One races through the MultiViewer app. (See pic) The MultiViewer app allows you to watch Formula One races beyond just a single broadcast of the race - instead of just the television broadcast you can also see multiple driver cockpit cameras, track information, position of cars on the track, the leaderboard and tire information, track violations and penalties, and even tune into specific driver radios. Basically it gives you a fully immersive racing experience outside of "just watching the race on tv". In addition to MultiViewer, there's a companion app called F1MV Lights Integration - which is awesome - and well... I simply had to have it. The companion app will take the data being pushed through MultiViewer and use it to control smart lights, so the lights reflect the race conditions such as green flags, red flags, safety cars, fastest laps, chequered flags, etc. In my picture someone had just hit the fastest lap of the race so far, usually indicated with the color purple on the leaderboard. As such the Philips lights changed to purple. The same happens for red flags, yellow flags, etc. Is it necessary? Nah... Cool as hell though? You bet. I originally tried this with the cheaper Govee lights, but although they were wi-fi capable like the Philips, they didn't have the API necessary to work correctly with the MultiViewer system. Those were returned and these were purchased instead. It sucked that I also had to buy a Philips hub to make it all work, but I'm silly and bought it anyway. Through the hub and the app, all it worked flawlessly and painlessly, connected easily, and does what I need it to do. All of it was generally easy to configure, and the app gives you quite a bit of control over a simple light. The lights dim from zero to 100 without issue, and the color range is everything I personally could ask for. (Although maybe others would be more demanding than myself.) All in all it was rather expensive, (compare to the Govee lights and you'll see the price difference!), but I hope that the extra expense means all of it will last a long time with no problems. They were purpose-bought and they serve their purpose excellently.

These bulbs work great in our downlights, replacing our old MR-16 bulbs. The colors are awesome and the whites can be dialed in however we want them. Added these to our other Hue light system bulbs in our house. We did not by the switch to control them manually other than changing the switch from a dimmer to a standard on/off switch. They did not work properly on a dimmer. On high settings the lights flashed. Replacing the on/off switch now with a switch purchased made by Hue when they went on sale recently. That switch allows local manual control and remote control via the Hue app. Great system! Only drawback we have seen is that when power goes out, once it’s restored they all turn on full power white! Minor issue except in the middle of the night!🤣

Dude love these lights. So expensive though! But work so well. Worth it!

Hues have really leveled up my Airbnb! I love the colors and the ability to time when they come on for my guests arriving late. Great quality, bright, and function well. Expensive but worth the investment.

One of the bulbs doesn’t work out of the box, the fixture for it took a few months to ship so I didn’t test them until way after purchasing. Disappointed that a new bulb wouldn’t work for how much it costs

Worked as promised

Paired immediately with my zigbee dongle and was picked up instantly on home assistant afterward. Seems to support the basic control that I needed it for so nothing negative to be said about the control. It's the same hue color calibration that I'm used to. The only thing that bugs me is how expensive these have gotten since the last set I've purchased, but moving away from the ecosystem would cost much more up front.

Ok

Gran calidad del producto, funciona a la perfección, es costoso pero realmente bueno.

Los mejores focos

Not much to say other than that as per my experience with Philips, they work and they work well. There also seems to be some kind of built in feature for if you plug it into a dimmable light fixture that’s not at full power, as they start to flicker. I liked that cuz I’d wondered if my apartment’s fixtures weren’t supplying as much power as needed and I think that answered it. Love the programmability too, colours, daytime variations, etc. definitely worth the value as far as I can tell.

Excelente calidad. He cambiado todas mis luces inteligentes por las de Hue, ya que los ambientes y la vinculación con Spotify me ha fascinado. El HUE bridge es obligatorio si quieres usarlo con asistentes de voz.

happy with purchase
